Take That!

This is mainly for my husband, but also for everyone else who says Kyler looks "exactly like Michael"....apparently she only looks 5% more like Michael. I knew it!

(**disclaimer: I do not necessarily support the accuracy of this after further tests with our other children were conducted, but it makes me feel better none-the-less)

Our Typical Day

This sums it up

I could probably think of a million words to discribe my girls, and you still would not be able to get there true essence...I think these converstations sum the girls up pretty good.

KAYDEN


Kayden: "Mom, were you and my daddy Brad ever married"
Mom: "Umm, no"
Kayden: "Well you're supposed to be married to have me"
Mom: "Yes, this is true, but Heavenly Father needed you in this family and you would not exist with daddy Michael, he is Asian...but, Heavenly Father told me you are for sure not supposed to have kids till you are married"
Kayden: "I know that already" (and gives me the look like, you should have known that too)

KAYLEE


Whenever we ask how old Kaylee is she says she is 3, then she says "mommy 2"...here is why

Kaylee: "I like hot dogs"
Mom: "Me too"
Kaylee: (with a puzzled look) "Me three"

KYLER


Mom: talking to Kyler, looking at her, playing with her
Kyler: happy and smiling
Mom: looks away for a second
Kyler: crying
Mom: looks back and starts talking to Kyler
Kyler: happy and smiling

yep...she fits right on in this family

For my girls...

I am the worst:
a) picture taker, why do I never remember to pull out my camera
b) picture user, why do the pictures I take either sit on the camera or computer for eternity
c) journal keeper, why do I never remember to write down the funny things
d) blogger, why did it resort to Teigan creating this blog for me and actually writing my first post. You would think as a grown person I would be able to handle that task myself

....so thank you Teigan, I truly do heart you cause if it were not for your subtle, yet effective, means of motivation I would not have this blog "for my girls" to one day look back on.

ps. here are a few pictures from the motivating trip to Omaha
pss. yes, that is really me in the pictures. After 12 years of long hair I decided to cut it off...and it's actually shorter then what you see below. I was standing in the mirror one day and decided to cut another inch from the front (Jennifer, if you every read this I sincerely apologize)

I Heart Teigan

I just love being here with her and Kyler in Omaha.
